MAGNETIC FLAW DETECTORS MARKET OVERVIEW

The global magnetic flaw detectors market was valued at USD 0.08 billion in 2024 and is expected to rise to USD 0.084 billion in 2025, eventually reaching USD 0.13 billion by 2033, expanding at a CAGR of 5% from 2025 to 2033.

The global COVID-19 pandemic has been unprecedented and staggering, with magnetic flaw detectors experiencing lower-than-anticipated demand across all regions compared to pre-pandemic levels.

Magnetic flaw detectors detect and measure flaws in either unfinished materials or finished goods. This product category includes fault detectors, which are NDT instruments used to locate defects in electronic, mechanical, fibre optic, or some other systems. An electric arc circuit breaker (electrical) as well as a failed roller bearing are two instances of faults (mechanical). Failure sensors could use air or framework acoustic detection techniques since both mechanical and electrical faults produce distinct sounds. Magnetic flaw detectors vary in terms of sleek design, applications, and features, in addition to technology.

COVID-19 IMPACT

Supply and Lockdown Limitations to Impede Market Advancement 

Coronavirus has had a negative impact on the growth of many businesses, including the industries of automobile manufacturing. Regional governments around the world levied shutdown, causing business owners to see a reduction in the demand for the automobiles in the second and third quarters of 2020.

With the decrease in demand, manufacturers or industrialists have pursued out ways to reach the consumer sector and government concessions in order to increase their product sales in the third and fourth quarters of 2020. The reopening of initiatives and automobile manufacturing sites has cleared the way for the machines manufacturers in the market, and growing demand is anticipated to reach at greater levels during the estimated timeframe. Therefore, making the machines to reach at greater heights.

LATEST TRENDS

Flaw Detection by Optical-Based NDT Instrument to Stimulate Market Development

Optical or laser methodologies, penetrant testing equipment systems, radiographic or X-ray machinery, and ultrasound (UT) test methods are examples of magnetic flaw detector technologies. Optical-based NDT instruments detect flaws and residual stress or measure thickness using methodologies including laser beam stereography, magneto-optical methodologies, and holographic interferometry. Furthermore, penetrant testing systems use spray or immersion to implement a penetrant to the part. Capillary action draws the penetrant into surface flaws. Radiographic and X-ray flaw detectors grasp images of the inner framework of a portion or finished product using penetrating X-rays as well as gamma rays. Ultrasonic (UT) inspection methods can identify exterior and subsurface flaws as well as measure thickness. High or great frequency acoustic energy or waves beams are tried to introduce into the material and then retrieved.

DRIVING FACTORS

Availability of Numerous Technological Options to Aid Market Expansion

There are numerous technological options for flaw detectors. Acoustic emission instruments monitor electrical energy and other systems utilize AE sensors. Acoustic signals can also be detected by airborne and structure-borne technologies. The intake of radiation by (IR) infrared, nuclear, or even beta gauge equipment is used to determine the depth or criteria mass of webs, sheet content or materials, or surface coating. To identify or evaluate faults, attachment or weld integrity, width, and dielectric strength, as well as the existence of rebar or metals, eddy current, permeating radar, and certain other electromagnetic methods are used. (EMAR) electromagnetic acoustic resonance instruments transmit a signal for resonant acoustic analysis via a non-contact electromagnetic transducer. Hall effect and induction are two magnetic methodologies used in flaw detectors. Magnetic particle systems make use of flow of current or an external magnetic field.

Increasing Wide Range Applications of Machinery to Foster Industry Progress

The AJE-220 AC that is a UV magnetic yoke flaw detector is indeed a handheld tool for inspecting the surface of irregularly shaped such as chain system, crank shafts, springs, falsified pieces, and valves for flaws. It has a wide range of applications and industries, including offshore, shipbuilding, ignition motor components, mining, industrial equipment, oil pump, aviation parts, automobiles, building bridges, chemical plants, pressure container industry, and rail industry, among others. It includes an ultraviolet light to aid in inspection. 

RESTRAINING FACTORS

Limited Usability of the Equipment to Hinder Market Advancement

It can only be used on ferromagnetic materials, which are typically iron and steel, it can be utilized on austenitic stainless steel. It is not always evident if the magnetic field or magnetic flux is strong enough to provide accurate readings.
